This sounds tasty! Hubby usually glazes a ham for Thanksgiving with a blowtorch (he used to do that for Honey-Baked Ham, and he said playing with the blowtorch was the best part of the job), and I bet he’ll be interested in this recipe. 🙂

We usually buy the spiral hams that only really need to be heated and served. One year I cooked them in sprite but that wasn’t that big of a difference that it would be worth using pop (not a fan of soft drinks). What sort of hams would you recommend I use this on? I know you raise your own, I envy you!

@Kate, Spiral hams are usually very good, although it has been a while since I cooked one. Most store bought hams come with a glaze and I always have preferred to throw that out and make my own. I think a nice homemade glaze gives is a caramelized texture to the outside. But yes, you can cook hams without any glaze.

We raise hogs, so no that is not a spiral ham like you buy at the store. It is a ham from our own hogs, and it a little different. It is more of an old fashioned type ham. I hope that helps answer your question.
